Abstract
We report on five patients with anomalies of the inferior vena cava wh o all presented with deed venous thrombosis. The anomalies of the infe rior vena cava were diagnosed with CT, and at the same time thrombosis of the inferior vena cava and/or iliofemoral thrombosis could be demo nstrated. Malformation of the inferior vena cava might be a predisposi ng factor for deep venous thrombosis.
